Full Time Receptionist......

Well folks....I haven't been talked to about all the employee information yet, but I told Tricia(Express associate) that I would take the full time position at Viking. I know what all of you are thinking and I appreciate your concern and prayers. Some ideas on what to look up on the Internet while at work would be nice. Feel free to comment on here with the ideas or on my Facebook. You all will be hearing lots from me from now on. I bet your all wondering on my reasons for staying at such a job as this. Hear me out.....I'm not doing well financially so I can not afford to be unemployed even if it would be just for a little bit. Sitting around is not normally my thing but for 14-16 dollars an hour, how can I complain. The ideal job for most children would be to get paid good and do nothing. Well welcome to the dream all you youngens!! So that is pretty much my reasoning. Once I get a new job in the New Year, it will not hurt my feelings to leave this place. I won't have an issue in quitting as I have no sense of belonging here. Nothing can even come close to the pain I felt leaving Sheryl at the liquor store, and my Mom and Dad. No one ever leaves a good job, but I did. And I'll probably kick myself forever because of that. Why couldn't Sheryl's store be located somewhere else!!!!!!!

On a different note, I would like to state that I am so THANKFUL to not be in Stettler. There is things I miss, but I got a text today about some more drama that is going on. This is the second time something has come up and people needed to let me know. I appreciate knowing, but am so glad I am not still living in that world of who said what and what this person did. Just the lying and deceit is overwhelming. You can't trust anyone you would normally think you could. A friend of mine is sadly just figuring this out. I found out the hard way too, we all do I suppose. But that is why moving is a beautiful thing!!!! Fresh start at life, and no one knows me. It's like being invisible now, which can get lonely, but no obligation or worrying.

Today seems like it will be a good day.So far it has gone by pretty fast, brought stir fry rice for lunch, and more typing on here this afternoon. I think I am going to make some lists as well. Guess who's daughter I am? hahah It's a family thing. Us and our forgetful memories so lists for everything are a must. Thing is after I make the list I tend to forget it somewhere. So ultimately there is no point to the list other than to pass time.

Besides boredom, I like Viking. Most of the people I get along with and the people I don't well they just get my really fake smile. Some days I feel like strangling the people who call here but that is why I talk to myself to calm my anger. And then when I go home at night, I vent to Gizmo. He gets it. He doesn't have to work with dumb people or talk to dumb people all day but he senses my anger and cuddles more when I'm angry. I set up my new bed the other day...I bought it off a friend from work who was also nice enough to deliver it. I got a tv stand as well which is nice because now I can actually use my desk for my computer and my hope chest for storing blankets and such. The downside to my new bed is the material woven at the head board and base. Gizmo LOVES climbing all over it and clawing at it. So I tell him no and what does he do? He first, hides under the bed, (which he can now do) OR scratches my hand so it looks like I just had a battle with Freddy krueger. He is a sneaky little cat that one. I'm sure if there were cameras in my house. We would win money on Funniest Home Videos for sure!!

The last hour before lunch, hmmmm........I love America! hahah There is some new information that no one would have ever guessed. There is this American Exec. at work though. And I always wonder to myself if he maybe has a son.....that he could hook me up with....hey why not?!! I'll have to ask sometime. I finally bought a vaccum....I shouldn't have bought one before christmas but on the plus side, I could return it if that is what I was getting for a gift, I just couldn't wait. I realize its a month, but I need to vaccum often because of Gizmo and from the move in my carpet was dirty. I love carpet though!!! So happy my place has it almost the whole place. I am still loving my place. I could just hang out there all day. This is a great feeling because my old place felt homey too but more of a dungeon. Maybe it was the green color or the drop style ceiling, or just the fact that it was much smaller. Either way I feel more at home and enjoy my time there more now that I am in my new place.I can't wait for everyone to see the new place!!! Next Year, mom and dad should be out to visit, my friend Evelyn is coming in February, and my Grandma should be visiting in March/April maybe!! I'm sure Kyle will be out again sometime after Christmas as well. So I just cannot wait. My place is now big enough to set up the air mattress and still be able to move around and since there is carpet, I don't even mind sleeping on the floor with a bunch of blankets. Like the good ol days.

Half hour till lunch...........Luckily tomorrow is Friday.....I have a few plans this weekend but nothing too exciting! A few people from work are going to come check out my new place, I plan on going for a walk either around Elk Lake or up Mount Doug, or even just in my neighborhood. It is always a different view than when you are driving.

I don't know if I told the blog this or not, but my car was fixed finally. It was the starter and now it starts like a charm. I love it being reliable again. I know the wet weather out here can take its toll differently than our weather does in Alberta. Here in the morning when there is frost on the window, apparently if you dump a bowl of really hot water it will take the frost away no problem. Dallas told me this and says she likes to put it on Facebook and see all her friends from Saskatchewan freak out because this could never happen in SK or AB. Our windshields would crack instantly if we did this in -30 weather. Luckily it has not gotten below 0. hahaha OK Humorous story.......On Tuesday, me and Emmy went shopping downtown and of course we needed Marble Slab which is the most genius ice cream place in the world. I ended up locking my keys in my car again, (thanks to being my fathers daughter and locking everything up tighter than Fort Knox) so while waiting for the tow truck, I had called Kyle and mentioned that we were just sitting in the parkade eating ice cream. He laughed and later texted me that there would be no way people would be sitting outside eating ice cream in Alberta right then. Apparently it was cold but not here!!!

Well since I have a tv stand and what not I have room to set up my wii and everything now. It looks good and besides the fact that I don't have batteries I have been playing Wii in my spare time. I wanted to play the Wii Fit yesterday evening but couldn't because the batteries were dead and I realized that I do not have anything that uses AA batteries. Weird.....So I did my Ab Circle pro and we will see if this while before Christmas in all my days of boredom if I can lose some poundage. I know the real problem with weight is from Red Bull. My favorite drink. At this point I might even be able to give up iced tea as it has been a while since I made any of that. just Red Bull, Milk and water. Some might tell me to drink the sugar free Red Bull, but to them I would say gross!!! It is the same as regular pop.....If I can't drink the regular stuff i will not settle for O.K. tasting diet drinks. I know some people like them and I feel like they are an acquired taste because I can not drink them. I would rather give it up all together. So with all this considered we will see how much weight I can lose before Christmas. I am going to pick up batteries, and a spray bottle to fight off Gizmo after work.

This is all my information about life for now.....Until after lunch.... Ciao
